Lord of War

readx; There are two study rooms in Black Swan Castle. Originally, there was only one study room at the beginning. The scale is not large, and the collection of books is naturally not rich. Rest environment.

The new study has a large area, almost occupying one-third of the second floor, and it was designed and furnished by Cecilia herself. And this room has a very wide view, the huge floor-to-ceiling windows in the room can see the entire vestibule of the Black Swan Castle and most of the mountain road. But what is really valuable to Cecilia is the strong scent of books and ink emanating from this study.

In terms of the volume of books alone, it can be said to be a miniature library.

At this time, in this large study room, there were seven people including Sean, Cecilia, Diana, Andrew, Bess, Enkos, and Kozilek.

"So, have you finally found information about Reis?" Sean asked.

"En." Cecilia nodded, "It's Hela who sent back the news....But according to Hela's intentions, it seems that she doesn't want William to know about it."

Sean nodded slightly.

He knew Hela's concerns and thoughts. After all, the matter about Leis could be said to be a thorn in William's heart.

Reis was the same student who had been studying at the Millennium Covenant Imperial Military Academy with William. It is said that the college grades at that time have always been much better than William, and it is not known how the two became friends. However, about fifteen years ago, the Millennium Covenant Empire had a coup d'état triggered by the Battle of Pochlia. At that time, William was abandoned as an abandoned son. With the help of friends, he was able to leave the territory of the Millennium Covenant Empire.

Only ten years ago, this friend of William was arrested and sent to prison.

After William learned of the news, Sean also wanted to go to the Millennium Covenant Empire to save people, but he had to give up because he had not been able to find out the location of the prison where Reis was held. Later, when the Void Realm had sufficient intelligence investigation capabilities, William sent a large number of intelligence personnel into the Millennium Covenant Empire to investigate the whereabouts of Reis. It took more than three years before he finally got the news today.

Ten years had passed since Reis was arrested.

No one can be sure what the current Rais will become.

So telling William about this at this important moment will inevitably cause him to be distracted and worried. Sean has already heard about the Void Empire plan from Cecilia,

He can't deny this plan, because he didn't think about such a long-term thing at first, but this is a plan jointly formulated by Cecilia, William, Hella, Neil and others. Sean can't pour cold water on it, so no matter what How he thought about it before is not important now, he must treat this matter as the most important thing.

However, William was the first member to follow Sean after all. It can be said that Sean can have the power of today's scale, completely inseparable from William's dedication.

And Cecilia is also very aware of Sean's temper. If Sean received this information, his choice would be the same as Cecilia's, so Cecilia asked Spector to share the information. The information was passed on to William for his own discretion.

It's just that I didn't expect that Hassas would come to ask for help at such a time. It was like being dozed off and someone gave a pillow, so while seeking the best interests for her own side, Cecilia also It was decided to take this as an opportunity to send personnel deep into the territory of the Millennium Covenant Empire to implement the plan to rescue Leis.

However, this is a special rescue team, so the combatants must have strong mobility and personal strength.

The most suitable candidate is undoubtedly a team composed purely of the strong.

But unfortunately, this approach is not realistic in the Principality of the Void.

Because this rescue mission is hidden under the deal with Hassas, apart from William personally leading the battle, there must be at least one strong man in command to prevent the looting target army from also being in command, so Rena's Joining the army is an inevitable choice. As for Cefanio, she must sit in the Void City, because now the Void City can be described as a mixture of dragons and snakes. Many nobles from other countries have come to visit the Black Swan Castle, and there are also many Sanctuary strong Or, without Xuefanio's suppression, the team that only relies on Void Shadow will not be able to control the situation.

Therefore, only Harding and Cecilia were able to act.

However, Harding's combat ability is also limited. He can only exert his maximum combat power at night and in a dark environment. Therefore, Cecilia also plans to transfer personnel from other legions to form a special mobile unit with a size of about ten to fifteen people. Odd Shadow Troops. After all, they didn't have any information about the team that secretly escorted and transferred Reis.

Especially for this kind of thing to rescue the prisoners of the Millennium Covenant Empire, Cecilia has no way to negotiate with Hassas to obtain information.

After listening to Cecilia describe his thoughts, Sean nodded noncommittally. In fact, even if he handles this matter, without sufficient intelligence and strength, his approach is the same as that of Cecilia, and there is no difference. If you really want to say something different, then it is probably that Sean will choose a more risky gambling method and take advantage of the situation. He will definitely drag all the tribes in the wild land into the water together. After all, the wild land belongs to " "near water tower" type.

But now...

"I'm afraid I won't be able to participate in this operation." Sean said with a wry smile.

"Huh?" Both Cecilia and Diana were taken aback, and some didn't react.

But Diana was fine, after all, she had a deep fear of Xiao En, so she only showed a little surprise and didn't make a sound. On the contrary, Cecilia was deeply puzzled, and even subconsciously expressed doubts because of surprise. After all, she also knew Andrew and Bess, and she was very impressed with the strength of these two people, so Cecilia even asked Sean to help intercede, to see if Andrew and Bess could be asked to help.

If it is possible, then the difficulty of this operation will change from high risk to a day trip in an instant.

"We're going to the Great Floating Library. This time I came back on purpose because I wanted to take you with me. Otherwise, I would already be in the Great Floating Library." Sean said, "So William For this matter, neither I nor Andrew can help... But if you just need a strong man to sit in charge, then this is easy to solve. I can get Nolo back now, and this little guy can also Could be of some help."

"This child?" Cecilia looked at Kozilek who was sitting obediently beside Sean with a look of surprise.

When seeing this child for the first time, Cecilia thought it was Sean's illegitimate child. This time, she went out for so long just to bring him back by the way, just like Alfred took Hina, but later she saw The behavior patterns of Kozilek and Sean realized that they might be thinking too much. After all, with Sean's character, it's not impossible to pick up an orphan with a little bit of talent and potential from the road. That's how Sean brought back Ruby back then.

After entering the study, Cecilia also specially ordered the kitchen to bring over some sweets that children like, so that Kokileto can taste more.

Hearing what Sean said at this time, Cecilia was naturally a little curious and surprised. She reached out and pinched Kozilek's face, and was instantly shocked, because she found that Kozilek's skin was as smooth as a baby's, which made her a little bit fond of it: "This child is still so young, how can he help? ...You can ask Nolo to rush back to help, but the floating library...I won't go, William is too short of manpower."

Seeing that Cecilia stretched out his hand to pinch his face, Sean was a little surprised that he was so tempered and not angry. Could it be because Cecilia fed him a lot of sweets just now? He had heard that sweets are good for nutrition, but he didn't expect that a completely unknown creature like Kozilek would actually like sweets so much. This is really shocking, but if this is the case, Sean would know How to fight Kozilek from now on.

"This kid's strength, I am afraid that even if the powerhouses of the entire Void Principality join forces, he can knock us down with one hand." Sean coughed lightly, "This guy...is a super powerhouse."

Cecilia's hand became stiff instantly.

At this moment, Cecilia's heart was like thousands of mud horses galloping past.

She was actually pinching the face of a super strong man!

What a faux pas!

In the Miracle Continent where the strong are respected, generally speaking, the legendary strong can be honored as His Highness, which is a kind of respect for the strong. Even some members of the royal family who have little strength have to call the legendary strongman His Highness. As for the super powerhouses who are stronger than the legendary powerhouses, even the legendary powerhouses have to lower their proud heads. Basically, there is no law in this world that can restrain these super powerhouses.

Because the only ones who can deal with super powerhouses are super powerhouses of the same level of strength.

"Yes... I'm sorry." Cecilia said weakly, and at the same time stretched out her hand with an embarrassed and cautious expression, suddenly feeling embarrassed that she didn't know what to do.

"Kozilek won't be angry over such a trivial matter." Sean said with a chuckle.

And Kozilek squinted at Sean, and then said, "Sweet."

Cecilia looked at Sean in confusion.

"He said he wanted some more sweets." Sean dutifully acted as an interpreter, "This guy likes sweets very much.... At that time, if you want him to help, get him more sweets. He should be very happy." The last sentence was Sean leaning over Cecilia and whispering in a low voice, but even though Sean kept paying attention to his own volume, he still underestimated the other people in the room except Diana They are ordinary people. Sean and Cecilia are both outside the lower sanctuary, and everyone else is at the level of super powerhouses. If they want to hear, Sean can't hide it unless it is a spiritual communication.

But maybe Kozilek really liked sweets, so he didn't react too much to it.

Of course, it's more that he doesn't resist fighting.

Because fighting means killing to him, and what killing can exchange is endless fire of life, these are his favorite things.

Cecilia also deeply admires Sean's ability to understand what Kozilek said. In fact, not only Cecilia, but even Andrew who tried to communicate with Kozilek at first, finally gave up on this kind of thing. I'm afraid that in the whole world, apart from Andrew, no one can know what Kozilek is talking about. So Cecilia suddenly fell into a tangle.

The tangled thing is that with the assistance of a super powerhouse like Kozilek, this is naturally a great thing, at least the fault tolerance rate has been greatly improved. But the trouble is that she has no way to communicate with Kozilek at all. In the ever-changing battlefield environment, if something unexpected happens, how will she let Kozilek understand her intentions?

Of course, besides this matter, Cecilia was still struggling with another matter.

Instinctively, she certainly hoped that she could go to the floating library with Sean. After all, for magicians, the three greatest holy places in the world are the Overlook Spire, Fort Solomon, and the Great Floating Library. But relatively, William is indeed short of manpower now, so Cecilia also wants to help William, to thank William for his help to Sean over the years.

Cecilia is very smart, so smart that she knew what it meant when she saw Sean's wry smile just now.

Sean also wanted to personally help William rescue Reis, but he couldn't do it. Cecilia didn't know the reason, but she knew that the reason must come from Andrew, and since Sean didn't intend to say it, Cecilia naturally didn't want to ask. She was just a little regretful, just met Xiao En, and then separated again, which made her feel a little lonely.

What Sean's reason is, probably no one knows except himself.

He asked Andrew and others to accompany him back to the Principality of the Void. This request itself was quite capricious, but Andrew obviously didn't mind. After all, he also needed time to gather the members scattered all over the Miracle Continent to return to the team. And Sean, after returning to the Principality of the Void, finally felt the feeling of "home", which gave him a personal experience of Andrew: They have been wandering in this plane world for so many years, they must be I miss my hometown so much.

That's why Sean didn't ask Andrew and the others to help solve Reis's matter.

Now he is the grand duke of a principality, and this principality has even begun to secretly prepare for becoming an empire. The forces under his command can be said to be strong to a certain extent, so things like rescuing Lais must be resolved by himself. After all, countless people in the entire Void Principality are relying on him. If he has to rely on other people's words, then what qualifications does he have to guarantee a bright future for his followers?

Sean originally wanted to take Cecilia to the floating library, but now it seems that this is obviously impossible. But calling Nolo back and keeping Kozilek at the same time, Sean felt that this was enough to ensure the safety of Cecilia and the others, so he didn't point fingers at Cecilia's plans and decisions indiscriminately. Instead, I joined the discussion as a staff member, just giving some of my own suggestions and opinions.

He still needs to stay here for a few more days in the Principality of the Void. After Rena and the others return and arrange the two angel costumes from the St. Joels Empire, he and Andrew and the others set off for the North Continent. However, this return will not waste any more time. Instead, Andrew will directly fix the coordinates to open the long-distance portal. This kind of long-distance portal cannot be opened at will, and accurate coordinate positioning is necessary OK.

This is why Andrew and the others did not directly open the long-distance portal when they returned to the Principality of the Void this time.

And with the appearance of Xiao En, the news of the return of the most legendary grand duke of the Void Principality quickly spread throughout the Void Principality, and then radiated towards the surrounding territories at an extremely fast speed. Especially the whereabouts of Rena, William, Harding, Hela, Cephaneo and others were exposed one after another, as well as the large-scale mobilization of the Thunder Lion, Iron Wings and other legions, the surrounding lords sent envoys into the void one after another. Principality.

After all, the Principality of the Void is the image of a mad dog, and it has already penetrated into the hearts of nobles in Ryan.

Even the Marquis of Flores sent a letter of condolence from King Lane.
